Roy Oswalt Needs To Become A Ranger

The Good News: The Texas Rangers are leading the AL West, and look poised to remain in contention through the long hot months of the summer. The Bad News: the pitching it seems does not hold up.

Baron Davis and Marcus Camby for Jason Kidd’s Expiring Contract?

It’s a tough sell at this exact moment. Dallas just pulled off an upset by defeating the Magic in Orlando. Back to back impressive road wins does NOT put anyone in the mood to trade. 105.3FM The Fan, a local Dallas area sports radio station, referenced yesterday’s Baron Davis article this afternoon, mentioning my comparison...

Dallas Needs to Look at Baron Davis

Mentioned by ESPN.com as an available point guard before the trade deadline, Baron Davis would make an immediate impact on a Mavericks team desperate for a third scoring threat. Dirk Nowitzki and Jason Terry are carrying the team in points, with Jason Kidd contributing a decent number some of the time. But the Kidd trade...

Jerry Stackhouse Wants Out

Jerry Stackhouse is reportedly talking to his agent about “exploring options” – either getting traded or bought out by the Mavericks. He’s not happy with his inactive status, and says he has too much good basketball left in him. In other words, the Mavericks coaching staff doesn’t know what they’re doing, and they’ve made a...

Artest to Houston. Mavs Do Nothing.

While I did not expect Artest to become a Maverick, it was because I thought he might actually stick it out in Sacramento. But tonight’s headlines tell us that Ron Artest will be headed to Houston in a trade for Bobby Jackson and probably Donte Greene. Another opportunity bites the dust. How did Mark Cuban...

NBA.com Misprint on Gerald Green

Some of you have pointed out to me that NBA.com says San Antonio picked up Gerald Green. This is why you have editorial control over your website. Someone needs to review this data and ensure its accuracy. While you would expect NBA.com to be the leader in accurate NBA reporting, human error is inevitable. To...

WAKE UP CALL

The Dallas Cowboys are playing excellent football right now. This is why nobody is really noticing how bad the Mavericks are doing right now. The Mavericks are 17 – 9 right now. More than half of those losses have came from Eastern Conference teams. I don’t know what is more embarrassing the video of Devon...

Thanks Mark… We Don’t Want Kobe

The Dallas Mavericks are not going to pursue Mr. Selfish/Team Destroyer Kobe Bryant. Is it an issue of talent? Yes it is. The Mavs would have to give up way too much and it’s a catch 22. Why? It’s the perfect contract situation for Kobe – there is a no trade clause. In other words,...

Is Kobe Headed for Dallas?

God, I hope not! That would mean we’d have to change the banner image of our site! Hmm… maybe I could survive the tragedy. In the meantime, let’s discuss why you’re wrong and I’m right. You’re wrong because you think the Kobe trade will NEVER happen. I’m right because I’ve always thought it’s very possible,...
